IMMERSIVE VISUAL ANALYTICS
Managers, users and especially analysts are being faced with increasing amounts of information on which to base decisions. Information visualisation is a powerful way to try and manage this problem, but even that encounters problems when limited to 2D visualisations. Moving to 3D dimensions can help, but often users encounter problems with orientation and recall since the 3D interface is so different to their normal expectations.

With Datascape we enable users to not only visualise and interact with data in 3D, but also feel immersed in that data, which helps with orientation and recall, supporting better analysis and decision making, and improving recall and collaboration.

IMMERSIVE LEARNING
Immersive environments and virtual worlds are powerful places in which to learn. They offer a unique environment to support learning, training and education. Using them can help increase understanding and retention and save time and cost through remote learning.

Immersive 3D simulations and exploratory learning spaces are suitable for student education and employee training. Accessible 24/7 from virtual worlds or directly from the web, scenarios and incidents to be as realistic as you need them to be – including integrating media resources such as video’s, audio, photos, maps and real life data and information into the simulations/scenarios. Using chatbot technology you can also create “non player characters” to interact with the learners or to take part in the simulation (e.g. act as patients, wounded, lecturers, customers etc).

3D SECURITY
Most surveillance and incident command and control systems use 2D maps to represent the target environment and to display key assets (e.g. cameras and people) and overlays (e.g. camera fields of view, sterile areas etc.). Using immersive 3D visualisation systems it is now feasible to augment the 2D view with a 3D view.

By providing access to a 3D model of the environment the operator can get a more visceral sense of the environment, enabling them not only to respond better themselves, but also to better appreciate what operatives on the ground are seeing to.

CHATBOTS (INTERACTIVE VIRTUAL ASSISTANTS)
Chatbots use natural language (and text to speech technology) to talk to and engage visitors to your website. They provide a cost effective way to provide 24 hour support to people who want answers and need help finding the relevant information, freeing up your overstretched human resources to answer more complex questions. Chatbots can help you build a relationship with every single visitor – encouraging return visits, sales and referrals.

Daden chatbots provide an easy to use, friendly, engaging and memorable customer experience, at a low cost. And with our easy-to-use Discourse chatbot authoring tool you can reduce costs even further by building and managing your chatbot yourself.
